Stansport 2 Person Tent Eagle Orange backpacking A-frame, 1,000mm PU water-resistant with No-See-Um mesh

The Stansport 2-Person Eagle Backpacking Tent is a compact, easy-to-assemble A-frame shelter designed for two people and built from 1,000mm P.U. coated polyester with a bathtub-style floor.

This tent refreshes the classic scout troop A-frame with modern materials and practical details for short backpacking trips, car camping, or weekend hikes. It balances low weight and a small packed size with durable components: a water-resistant upper, fully taped seams, a No-See-Um mesh inner door for ventilation, and a polyester oxford bathtub floor to help keep ground moisture out. The kit includes two steel poles, guylines, stakes, and a carry bag so you can stash it quickly when you pack up camp.

How easy is the Stansport Eagle tent to set up?

Setup is straightforward: the A-frame structure goes up quickly with the two included steel poles and single peak configuration. The tent can also be rigged with trekking poles if you prefer an ultralight option or need to reduce packed weight. Lightweight guylines with tensioners and a full set of stakes keep the pitch stable on variable terrain.

• Two steel poles included for fast assembly
• Can use trekking poles instead of included poles
• Four guylines with tighteners for secure staking
• Comes with 12 stakes and a compact carry bag

Will this tent keep me protected from wind and light rain?

The 1,000mm P.U. coated polyester upper and fully taped seams offer basic water resistance suitable for light to moderate showers. The bathtub-style polyester oxford floor provides a raised boundary against ground moisture. For heavier or prolonged storms, add a rainfly or pitch under cover—this tent is best used where severe weather is unlikely.

• 1,000mm P.U. coated polyester resists runoff
• Fully taped seams reduce seepage points
• Polyester oxford bathtub floor limits ground moisture entry
• Dual entry mesh doors improve airflow to reduce inside condensation

How comfortable and ventilated is the interior for two people?

The A-frame layout gives a roomy sleeping area for two people and a simple interior with good headroom at the center peak. Dual zippered No-See-Um mesh doors allow cross-ventilation while keeping insects out, and the compact footprint fits inside most campsites. Internal space is optimized for sleeping and storing small gear at your feet.

• Two-person layout with center peak for headroom
• Dual zippered mesh doors for ventilation and insect protection
• Simple interior ideal for two sleeping pads and light gear
• Packs down small to fit in most backpacks or trunks

What comes in the box and what maintenance is recommended?

The tent package includes the tent body, two steel support poles, four guylines with tighteners, twelve stakes, and a carry bag. After use, shake out dirt, air dry fully before storing, and avoid long-term UV exposure to preserve the P.U. coating. Repair kits and extra stakes are useful additions for extended trips.

• Included: tent body, 2 steel poles, 4 guylines, 12 stakes, carry bag
• Store dry and out of direct sunlight to protect coatings
• Replace or patch stakes, guylines, or seam tape as needed
• Optional: bring a footprint or tarp for added floor protection

Who is this tent for? The Stansport Eagle 2-person tent suits casual backpackers, scout groups, and weekend campers who want a familiar A-frame design with modern materials. It’s a good pick when you need a low-cost, compact shelter that sets up quickly and offers insect-protected ventilation. If you regularly face heavy storms or need ultralight solo gear, consider a tent designed specifically for those conditions; otherwise, this model delivers dependable, straightforward shelter for two campers on short trips.
